RadGrid - Dropdownlist of Commands

[Steve]

Hello,

I was looking at using a dropdownlist inside of one of the columns in a radgrid to launch commands from, such as  edit row - View details - Delete - Options...etc

I've successfully added the dropdownlist to my columns and I've been able to find the dropdownlist in my radgrid's ItemCreated event (and while attempting to make it work, the ItemDataBound event) , i've even  been able to attach my dropdownlists .selectedindexchanged event to a method that i have created.  

But no matter what i do it just won't fire the event.  Is there something blocking my event?  Or should this method work and I am just implementing it wrong? 

Thanks,
Steve

Hello Steve,

Please try setting the AutoPostBack property of the DropDownList to true and let me know whether this helps.

All the best,

Hi Mira,

I just checked the DropDownList and it indeed does have AutoPostBack set to true.

Thanks,

Steve

Hi Mira,

Just thought i'd post and let you know that I figured it out.  The code I was  using for the creation of the DropDownList event handler was correct.  My issue was that the RadGrid that contained it was being rebuilt  and it was reseting my DropDownList.  After moving some code around, creating specific functions for populating my grid (as it was being populated in different ways) , as well as making sure my grid wasn't being repopulated on Postback, all is finally well.

Thanks for your assistance,

Steve
